On my way home today I saw a blue-on-silver fox GT on the side of the road with his hazards on, so I ducked in in front of him. Was a mexican guy who works at the IHOP by my house, I've seen the car there before; it's really ragged out. Anyway, he said the RPM's just started to skyrocket uncontrollably, so he pulled over. I started it up and it did just that....tached up to about 4k in a second or two and showed no signs of coming down, so I shut it off immediately. Now, being a 2.3 guy with no real experience with 5.0's, what could cause this? Due to the slack on his gas pedal, I'm thinking it was a stuck throttle cable, but I looked around by the TB and didn't see a cable. Anyone ever had this happen? It was an automatic, btw.
Some *******s shouted "hahaaaaa" out their window as they drove past, I don't know which car it was. Guess they thought it was funny to see two Foxes on the side of the road. Flipped them the birdy as an afterthought....let's see another Sunbird or whatever owner pull over next time they're in trouble, shall we....
